About this listen

Baltimore’s own Cris Jacobs joins Mother Dave and Kirk McEwen for an unforgettable episode — marking the first-ever guest appearance on the Mother’s Podcast. From his early days with The Bridge to solo sets at the Grand Ole Opry and sharing the stage with icons like Steve Winwood, Little Feat, and Phil Lesh, Cris brings stories, soul, and plenty of laughs.

We dig into:

  • The birth of The Bridge and the scene they helped create
  • Why the Funk Box became a second home
  • Opening for legends and holding his own
  • Life on the road vs. life as a dad
  • Why Baltimore still feels like the center of it all

Plus, Mother Dave and Kirk talk restaurant life, trivia nights at Mother’s North and Peninsula, why staff like Tag are the secret sauce, and how live music culture continues to shape the community.

🎧 Whether you’re a fan of Cris, a Bridgehead from back in the day, or just into stories that mix grit, gratitude, and guitars — this episode hits all the right notes.
